2016Do My Best GamesPlayStation 4, Linux, PC (Microsoft Windows), Mac, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch

Travel by train through a dying world. Look after your passengers, keep your train operational, and make sure you can always reach the next station. Make your way through swarms of infected at each station. Explore mysterious and abandoned stations looking for supplies and survivors. This is The Final Station.

What it feels like

Slow-building anticipatory fear permeates stations and supply runs, never knowing what lurks ahead. A grave, subdued atmosphere of a world in terminal decline with passengers facing an uncertain future. Quiet sadness in the loss of civilization and the faint hope carried by train passengers.

How it looks and sounds

Gameplay is presented from a 2D side-on profile perspective during exploration and platforming. Deliberately low-resolution pixel graphics define the visual identity throughout. Worn, decayed environments of abandoned stations convey atmospheric degradation and abandonment.
